Part Datasheet Audit Scope
Audit of the A6E-8101-N part metadata, schematic terminals/symbol, PCB footprint, and attached assets against the datasheet already stored in the part's Datasheet URL property.
Stored part information
Attached assets:
  • Symbol: A6E-8101-N A6E-8101-N Symbol.svg
  • Footprint: SW_A6E-8101-N_OMR.kicad_mod
  • 3D model: A6E_8101_N.step
Datasheet identification and key specifications
The stored manufacturer datasheet identifies A6E-8101-N as an A6E-N series, 8-pole, flat-actuator, through-hole slide DIP switch, supplied in tubes of 21.
The datasheet extraction was OCR-based; the dimensions and ratings above were cross-checked against the drawing and model table returned from the stored PDF.
Schematic symbol and terminal audit
Audit complete. The Datasheet URL was already populated, so no update was needed; the 16-pad footprint geometry and pin pairing match the 8-pole switch, but pin types/descriptions and package metadata are incomplete, and the 1.0 mm drill diameter could not be verified.
Full findings and key specifications: Part Datasheet Audit.
Populate the missing description and package metadata, then set all terminal types to Passive with paired pole descriptions.
I’ll add the part description/package metadata, update all 16 terminals to Passive, assign descriptions for the eight paired poles, and verify the result.
Updated the part:
  • Added a datasheet-backed description.
  • Set Package or Case Code to 16-DIP.
  • Set all 16 terminals to Passive.
  • Added paired pole descriptions for contacts 1–16, 2–15, through 8–9.
  • Verified all terminal properties were applied correctly.
